Reproductive Freedom Fund Grant is a grant from the Women's Foundation of Minnesota that funds organizations expanding access to and advancing reproductive justice across Minnesota. Five grants of $50,000 each — including $10,000 dedicated to staff wellness and development — support nonprofits working to increase bodily autonomy, reproductive healthcare access, and systems change at the intersection of reproductive justice and racial equity. The program was created with seed funding from the Midwest Legacy Fund and is designed to sustain organizations as Minnesota serves as a regional sanctuary state for abortion care. Eligible applicants are nonprofit organizations, or organizations with a fiscal sponsor, working on reproductive justice in Minnesota. Applications were due January 27, 2026.
The Fund for Women & Girls Grant is a grant from The Foundation for Enhancing Communities (TFEC) in South Central Pennsylvania that funds nonprofit organizations working to improve the lives of women and girls in Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Lebanon, and Perry counties, and the Dillsburg Area of York County. The program supports projects addressing economic security, safety, health, leadership development, and other critical needs of women and girls in the region. Eligible applicants are 501(c)(3) nonprofits directly serving women and girls in the specified counties; organizations without 501(c)(3) status may apply with an eligible fiscal sponsor. Awards are up to $15,000. The application deadline for the current cycle is May 1, 2026.
The Greater Milwaukee Foundation distributed $96.9 million in 6,184 grants to 2,028 organizations during 2025 — its largest annual total in 110 years of operation. The foundation explicitly tied the surge to regional crises and to "significant gaps in federal funding for nonprofits affecting housing and many basic services." Education received $17.8M, Human Services $16.9M, Arts & Culture $14.2M. Roughly 71% of grant dollars stayed within the four-county service area and 82% within Wisconsin. The foundation's assets grew 57% over the past decade to $1.33 billion. The Milwaukee numbers are an early indicator of a structural shift: community foundations are being asked to absorb federal-program gaps in ways the community-foundation model was not historically designed for, and the strategic implications for nonprofits cut both ways.
